I went to a funeral   Lord it made me happy   Seeing all those people   I ain't seen   Since the last time   Somebody died      Everybody talking   They were telling funny stories   Saying all those things   They ain't said   Since the last time   Somebody died      But you take a look around you   Don't it seem like something's missing   I said something that weren't missing   Lord the last time   Somebody died      You took him from the last time   To that hallowed ground   I'm praying take me to the next time Lord   So I can hang around      Then the people start to looking   And some of them start crying   And all the little children   Lord they're scared   Because they ain't never seen   A dead man before      You took him from the last time   To that hallowed ground   I'm praying take me to the next time Lord   So I can hang around      He's swimming through that Jordan   Going to the other side   But if it's all the same to you Lord   I think I'll stay dry      Now it's church on Sunday   It's a bar on Friday night   It's work on Monday   The preacher Lord you know he might sing      Hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah      He's got church on Sunday   And he got drunk the night before   And he got his good gal when he got home   The preacher said he wants some more of that      Hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah      Now if you want to get to heaven   Let me tell you what to do   You better grease your foot up buddy   With that mutton stew   And when the devil comes after you   With them greasy hands   You just slide on over to the promised land      Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah      Now there was two little imps   And they was black as tar   And they was trying to get to heaven   In an electric car   And that car wheel slipped   On down the hill   Instead of going to heaven   They went to Jacksonville      Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah   Sing hallelujah      Thank you, you've been so nice   All my friends they came   Now close the lid down tightly   And quit crying   Because when they close them   They all look the same      And grab hold of the handle   It won't be too heavy   And take me to the graveyard      I went to a funeral   And Lord it made me happy   Seeing all those people   I ain't seen   Since the last time   Somebody...
